The 'here' hyperlink was a link to a rocketcolo.net site and it has an hallmark.gif.exe file that it will automatically download to your computer.
I changed the 'here' to www.hallmark.com so folks would not click on it and install something bad for your computer.
Be carefull when clicking on links in emails you recieve from strangers and even friends. If you run your mouse over the link a small text string should appear that shows what the hyperlink is on most Internet browsers.
If you have a Maytag Neptune front loader and it gets a virus or declines in performance check out www.neptunewaxmotor.com for help.
Until next time...

Of course, there is no "Privacy and Security link"
However, there was ONE link. The Hallmark "Crown" logo actually linked to Hallmark.com, a valid site.
The email carried a .zip file, which contained "program.doc". Upon investigation, this turned out to be "program.doc.scr", which is referenced elsewhere on the net as carrying a virus.
McAfee identified the virus load as "Generic.dx", a trojan.
